Hermione's POV


As we landed in the apartment, Pansy began muttering under her breath again about how she couldn't believe I hadn't planned out more of the wedding as she went into the kitchen. "Where's your wine?"

I held back a laugh and pointed towards the cabinet on the far left as Ginny went to grab wine glasses. "Merlin, Hermione, you must have really set her off."

"We have two and a half months before she gets married!" Pansy exclaimed as she straightened up and set the bottle on the counter with a heavy thud, scowling at me. "And she hasn't picked colors, she hasn't picked bridesmaid dresses- have you even officially confirmed where you're getting married?!"

I gave her a sheepish look. "Um...no..."

She let out a long, frustrated groan before uncorking the bottle and pouring herself a large glass of wine, nearly filling it to the brim. After a long drink she sighed and then gestured towards the couch. "Go, sit. We're not leaving until we have everything planned out."

Ginny was still holding back a laugh as we walked over to the couch with Pansy following behind, still grumbling under her breath.

"Pansy, to be fair," Ginny started with a smile as she sat down. "Hermione has been busy with work and such."

"Still!" Pansy took another long drink before breathing in deeply, closing her eyes. "You're right. There's plenty of time as long as we get everything sorted today."

I couldn't help but smile at Pansy, shaking my head slightly. She pulled a notepad from her purse then and looked over at me expectedly. "Okay, first thing's first: where are you wanting to get married?"

"I'm fine with the gardens at Malfoy Manor," I said with a slight shrug.

She raised an eyebrow at me but before she could answer, a door behind us opened.

"'Mione, love, is that you?"

We all turned to see Draco walking out of the bedroom shirtless with freshly wet hair and sweatpants on. As soon as he saw the other two his eyes went wide and he immediately stepped back into the bedroom, prompting a scoff from Pansy.

"Seriously, Draco? We used to date, it's nothing I haven't seen before," Pansy said with a heavy sigh before gesturing towards the seat next to me with a snap of her fingers. "Go put on a shirt and come back out; this is your wedding too."

I heard a groan from the bedroom and couldn't help but laugh, seeing Ginny grinning into her wine glass and Pansy simply shaking her head. "I swear to Merlin..."

Draco reappeared seconds later with a black shirt on and as he sat next to me he hissed, "I thought we agreed she wasn't going to get any more wine from us when she is in a mood!"

"She grabbed it as soon as she walked in!" I hissed back, scowling at him. "You're more than welcome to try and take it from her!"

There was the sound of someone clearing their throat as Pansy grabbed our attention, raising an eyebrow at us. "Are you two done bickering?"

"Yes," We answered at the same time.

Ginny snickered to herself before muttering, "Oh, I wish Harry could see this..."

"Okay, where are you two getting married?" Pansy asked, looking between us. "Draco, I remember you saying you were interested in looking at other venues; have you actually done this?"

"Well..." Draco faltered, slouching back into the couch. "...no."

"If you want to find a place other than Malfoy Manor, I will give you a week to come up with another option because we need to give them ample time to prepare," Pansy said, scribbling something onto the notepad and sighing out of her nose. "Okay, wedding colors?"
